    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">CLEVELAND -- Just as forward Carlos Boozer prepares to return, the Cleveland Cavaliers said Monday they'll be without center DeSagana Diop.


    Diop has given the Cavaliers much-needed interior defense. He sprained his right knee in Saturday's double-overtime loss to Memphis.</div>

    Wow this is great! I know Diop is a great defender, but he seems he cant get something going on offense/scoring.

    Well less about Diop and more on Boozer. I think not having Boozer especially against Detroit the other night hurt a lot! He is a defensive/offensive threat. Seems to be a great rebounder...

    Defensive Rebs: 8.1
    Offensive Rebs: 2.4
    Rebounds: 10. 5
    PPG: 12.1
    APG: 1.8
    BPG: .73

    Diop is not a scorer, but has improved his scoring ability by lightyears.

    He has showed us hookshots with both hands and a steady 15 foot jump shot.

    Diop has been amazing for the Cavs for still being a very raw project.
